Device for holding sheets

Abstract

A device for holding individual sheets contains a circular baseplate with a weight. A U-shaped clip is integrally formed on the upper side of the baseplate and is situated in a plane running obliquely with respect to the upper side of the baseplate. Arranged within the clip is an inner element which forms a gap between its outside and the inside of the clip. Paper can be inserted into this gap.

1. A device for securing sheets, having a baseplate to which a clip having an opening and having two legs and a web defining only a single plane is attached, said device having an inner element which is arranged in the opening of the clip, the inner element being situated in the plane of the two legs, and being at a distance, forming a gap, from the inside of the two legs, the inner element being attached to the baseplate;
 wherein the plane defined by the two legs of the clip is arranged at an angle between forty-five degrees and ninety degrees from said baseplate; 
 wherein a weight is inserted into the baseplate; and 
 wherein a magnet is arranged on a the lower portion of the base plate. 
 
   
   
     2. The device of  claim 1 , wherein the plane of the two legs of the clip is arranged at an angle of approximately 70° with respect to the baseplate. 
   
   
     3. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the inner element has a tongue that is bent away out of the plane defined by the two legs of the clip. 
   
   
     4. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the clip and the inner element have a flat profile. 
   
   
     5. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the clip is connected to the baseplate along the web, which connects the two legs to the baseplate. 
   
   
     6. The device as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the inner element has a leg arranged on the web of the clip. 
   
   
     7. The device as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the web connecting the two legs of the clip is interrupted approximately in the center of its length and has ends defined by the interrupted web. 
   
   
     8. The device as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the inner element has two parallel legs which are attached to the ends of the interrupted web connecting the two legs of the clip. 
   
   
     9. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the inner element is in a shape that corresponds to a shape of a portion of the clip that includes the two legs. 
   
   
     10. A device for securing sheets, having a baseplate to which a clip having two legs defining a plane is attached, said clip having an opening between said two legs, said device having an inner element which is arranged in the opening of the clip, the inner element being situated in the plane of the two legs of the clip, and being at a distance, forming a gap, from the inside of the two legs of the clip, the inner element being attached to the baseplate;
 wherein a downwardly opening groove is arranged on the lower portion of the base plate; and 
 wherein an O-ring, the diameter of which is larger than the depth of the groove, is inserted under tension into the groove. 
 
   
   
     11. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the entire device is injection molded from plastic as a single piece. 
   
   
     12. The device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the legs of the clip run parallel to each other.
